Now that there are cases of physical copies of FF XVI accidentally being shipped out early the game developers are asking for those that receive a copy of the game early to be considerate to those who will have to wait until the official release date to play their copy by not spoiling the game online.
If you did receive a copy of the game early, I would like to echo this sentiment. You did nothing wrong and I can understand the desire to talk about what you’re playing but please don’t ruin the experience for others. I hope you enjoy it and I’ll be diving in as soon as I can next weekend.
Anybody see anything online spoiling the game or has the community stayed respectful so far?
I agree that spoilers are fine as long as tags are used but I still personally would argue to wait until the release day before any discussion of the official game, spoiler or not, be dropped on the web. That’s more of a respect for the community waiting because from past experience, once the spoiler is dropped (with or without the tag) someone will pick it up and drop it everywhere else online and ruin it for others.
